[dba-Tech] Nasty little trojan

That's not my trojan, there wre no icons with mine. It was hidden in the
picture viewer part of Program files, in the Ulead folder.

I did some more checking last night, seems that the rules update for Trojan
Hunter which included that trojan were updated in June 2001, so it's fairly
old, yet I still can't find any informatin about it anywhere.

And thinking about it, I was wandering around some sites on Sunday night
looking for extra maps and downloads for Warhammer 40k Dawn of War, so I
might have picked it up there. They were the only sites I visited that were
outside the ones I regularly look at.

I thought I ran into your trojan tonight. I was working on a PC and cleaning
the typical junk off the desktop. I ran into this:
http://www.winhaven.net/security/ScreenShot.html

To the right you'll see a small quais-icon (scroll down and there's a blow
up of it beneath the large image)

If I clicked on it I could see that it had the image boundaries the same as
a typical icon but when clicked it would not do anything, I could get no
short cut menu form it when right clicking (got themenu for the desktop) and
I could not select it.

Anyone ever see anything that looked like that?

Not a clue, but I'm hoping that the av companies start including it in their
updates, as it's a right pain to get rid of.

Jon,
Good catch! It must be very new as I can't find any information on it
(including Trojan Hunter info). Have you found anything about how it was
delivered?
